International Jaguar Day is observed annually on November 29 to raise awareness about the conservation of jaguars and their habitats. Jaguars, the largest wild cats in the Americas, play a crucial role as apex predators and umbrella species, helping maintain biodiversity and ecological balance. The day highlights threats such as deforestation, poaching, and habitat fragmentation, and promotes global conservation efforts, including wildlife corridors, legal protection, and community engagement. Observing this day encourages environmental education, sustainable practices, and international collaboration to ensure the survival of jaguars and the ecosystems they support.
